A Two-Stage Approach to Modeling Vacant Taxi Movements
Abstract In this paper, a two-stage modeling approach is proposed to predict vacant taxi movements in searching for customers. The taxi movement problem is formulated into a two-stage model that consists of two sub-models, namely the first and...

Seismic Behavior of RC Columns with Interlocking Spirals under Combined Loadings Including Torsion
Abstract Reinforced concrete (RC) columns of skewed and curved bridges with unequal spans or column heights can be subjected to combined loading including axial, flexure, shear, and torsion loads during earthquakes. This combination of seismic...

Using Images to Measure Qualitative Attributes of Public Spaces through SP Surveys
Abstract Stated preference choice experiments can benefit from the use of images to describe complex scenarios such as public spaces or urban infrastructure. However, images will be perceived subjectively by users who will probably understand them...

Probabilistic pseudostatic analysis of pile in laterally spreading ground: Two layer soil profile
Abstract Coupling the finite element model of pile under lateral spread with the Monte Carlo Simulation is frequently prohibited by excessive lengthily computations. In the present paper, a simplified pseudostatic method is integrated with an...

Better Convergence for Dynamic Traffic Assignment Methods
Abstract An essential feature in many of the dynamic traffic assignment methods that are used to study planning and traffic management problems is to compute the dynamic user equilibrium (DUE). In this paper the focus is on efficiently computing the ...

Investigation of Critical Activities in a Network with Point-to-point Relations
Abstract Recently developed point-to-point relations have greatly extended the modeling capability of the Precedence Diagram Method. These relations can connect any inner (and extreme) points of the related activities. Furthermore, the definition of ...

Forecasting project schedule performance using probabilistic and deterministic models
Abstract Earned value management (EVM) was originally developed for cost management and has not widely been used for forecasting project duration. In addition, EVM based formulas for cost or schedule forecasting are still deterministic and do not...
